I won a bottle of this off of ebay a few days ago. I won it with Midway and Pumpkin Cheesecake. I thought Midway would be the favorite out of the lot but I was wrong! Love's Philosophy has me hooked!
In the bottle it was a bit strong, like a medicinal vanilla. I am not sure what saffron smells like, but I can tell something is there over the sweet vanilla cream.
On my skin wet it smells the same as in the bottle.
As it dries down it becomes sweet cream soda/root beer. Which is INCREDIBLE on me and I happen to adore root beer
It does start off pretty strongly but then stays close to me (which is fine, I can smell it on me all day!) but doesn't have the same throw on me that Sugar Cookie or Samhain does.
I think I have found my new favorite. It's sweet and soft with a bite of root beer, but a very grown up sweet.
